Teacher Comments: "This book is so creatively written as it is divided into three parts in which different members of a family have an encounter with a turtle throughout its life. The illustrations are bright and colorful and support the text. Each character learns a lesson through their interaction with the turtle and the story ends poignantly as the turtle's life too ends."
